I made it!!! Today was spent creating an advent calendar for my team at my company. Because they've been real sweethearts of late and really deserve more than a thank you.

Since it was so much fun, I'm sharing the creation process with you. My idea before starting was rather scetchy. I wanted someting typographic, I had those little bags and I knew the color I wanted. My idea loosely was to color a large wood piece and then use nails to arrange the wire.


After I mixed the color and applied part of it to the wood I printed out the letter A so I'd could leave out part of the wood.
I always work in chaos doing several things at the same time.


My accidental Star Trek Bag :)
Yet more typographic work ;)


Applying nails and the wire!

The Result!

Now I just need to fill those bags. Suggestions are welcome. Chocolate is mandatory!
Bonus piggie!!
